Migrating from NetSuite to Business Central Brings Cost Savings and Growth
Selecting the right ERP system is crucial for balancing functionality and cost. A good ERP supports business processes while fitting within budget, which in turn enhances efficiency, profitability, and overall growth. Making the wrong choice, however, can lead to unnecessary expenses, hinder efficiency, and ultimately restrict a company’s ability to expand and thrive.
An ERP vendor plays a key role in this selection process. The vendor’s expertise and understanding of various ERP solutions should help guide businesses toward choosing the best-fit system. A successful ERP partnership means recommending solutions that are tailored to the specific needs of the client, not just pushing the most expensive option. This ensures that the ERP system will support both present and future business goals without becoming a financial burden, allowing companies to thrive without being weighed down by unmanageable costs.

Take Iron Container as an example. Initially, they implemented NetSuite to manage their business processes. While NetSuite did offer the necessary functionality, the costs associated with it quickly became overwhelming. This put a strain on Iron Container’s budget, restricting their ability to invest in other critical areas of the business. Western Computer stepped in to evaluate their situation and identified Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as a better alternative. How did it turn out for them?
Dynamics 365 BC Reduced Their Costs
One of the primary reasons Iron Container decided to switch from NetSuite was because of the rising costs. Business Central provided the same ERP features and capabilities that they previously had with NetSuite, but at a significantly lower price point.
It wasn’t an easy sell, though. Iron Container still had a significant portion of their first ERP implementation on their books. Only after a thorough analysis of the potential return on investment were they able to feel confident about investing in Business Central.
The impact of this switch was evident almost immediately. Iron Container was able to reach their break-even point just a few months after transitioning to Business Central!
Continuous Improvement Brings Greater Value
The first step was to make the move to their new cloud-based ERP. The initial implementation was designed to provide a solid foundation that could evolve with the business as its needs changed, rather than attempting to achieve perfection from day one. Once they were up and running, they could leave NetSuite behind and focus on incrementally improving their Business Central experience.
In the months following the go-live date, the team at Iron Container learned more about Business Central’s capabilities as they began using it in real-world scenarios. They were able to identify areas where minor adjustments could lead to increased efficiency, better workflows, and maximized value from the system.
Western Computer helped them discover additional features of Business Central that they weren’t using, as well as applications and tools that could integrate seamlessly with their new ERP to further enhance its capabilities.

Western Computer’s Managed Services Maximizes Business Central’s Potential
Iron Container decided to take advantage of Western Computer’s Managed Services to further reduce complexity. Managed Services go beyond just fixing problems as they arise—they involve proactive planning, strategic guidance, and ongoing support to ensure that Business Central evolves with the changing needs of Iron Container.
This support helped Iron Container understand what new features were available, how they could leverage them, and what improvements could be made to better align the ERP system with their overall business goals.
With Western Computer’s backing, Iron Container could adapt quickly to any issues or opportunities that arose. Whether it was troubleshooting a problem or planning for future growth, managed support ensured that Iron Container had the answers and assistance they needed without delay.
By working closely with Western Computer, Iron Container was able to ensure that Business Central became an integral part of their strategy for growth, rather than just a tool for managing day-to-day operations.
Are You Ready to Make the Move from NetSuite to Dynamics 365?
Migrating from one ERP system to another is never an easy decision, but as Iron Container’s experience shows, the benefits can be substantial. By switching to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, they were able to lower their costs and continue to improve their operations with the ongoing support of Western Computer. This decision ultimately positioned Iron Container for greater success and growth in the long run.
